Questionnaire data were collected aboard Navy auxiliary ships and experimental task simulations were carried out to extend the human factors data base established by the FY1980 Women Aboard Ships Programs. Questionnaire results were generally consistent with the FY 1980 data. Females reported more difficulties than males using special clothing and gear and reaching needed items. This was especially true of the smaller females. Females also rated habitability spaces lower than males. High proportions of both females and males cited difficulty with the use of ship fittings such as ladders, watertight doors and escape shuttles. (Author)
